Aims of our Group<\/h2>\n

[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.4.8″ text_orientation=”center” custom_padding=”|5vw||5vw|false|true” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n

As yet there is no medical cure for tinnitus, and for this reason; it needs to be managed from a therapeutic angle.\u00a0 Information, advice and support are currently the best medicines for tinnitus, and belonging to a group is one way of receiving a regular dose!<\/p>\n

[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row _builder_version=”4.4.8″ custom_padding=”|10vw||10vw|false|true” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”4_4″ _builder_version=”4.4.8″ global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_tabs active_tab_background_color=”#ffffff” inactive_tab_background_color=”#9a96be” active_tab_text_color=”#353635″ _builder_version=”4.4.8″ tab_text_color=”#ffffff” custom_css_tabs_controls=”background-color:#f7f7f9;” custom_css_tab=”padding:1vw;” custom_css_tabs_content=”padding:3vw;” border_width_all=”0px” border_color_all=”rgba(0,0,0,0)” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_tab title=”Our Mission” _builder_version=”4.4.8″ global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n

Quite simply we aim to give the best support and information available to help people cope with tinnitus. We do this so tinnitus sufferers can enjoy a better quality of life. Another part of what we do is providing\u00a0the medical profession with information so that they are more able to help their tinnitus patients. We also support additional research into this condition.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

[\/et_pb_tab][et_pb_tab title=”Our Vision” _builder_version=”4.4.8″ global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n

We believe in a world where nobody with tinnitus has to suffer alone. Our aim is that every<\/strong> tinnitus sufferer is fully empowered<\/strong> with the knowledge and resources to manage the condition and a community to support them. Whilst we primarily work in the local area, we want this information to be available to all.<\/p>\n
